Audi Q2

The smallest Audi SUV, on MQB rather than MLB — so it is a Golf underneath rather than an A4, which is the fact that decides where its information lives and which is not obvious from the badge. Transverse engines, a DSG rather than an S tronic longitudinal unit, and a Haldex coupling on quattro cars rather than a Torsen centre differential. Every one of those is a different component family from the larger Q models, so Q3 and Q5 experience transfers less than the naming suggests.

Information, not instruction

CarGeek is a reference, not a service manual. Its pages are written from public sources and from what other people have found, never from a manufacturer's own service information, so they can be wrong or incomplete for your particular vehicle. Some of what they describe carries real risk: high voltage, fuel under pressure, stored energy, hot and moving parts.

Have anything you intend to act on checked by a trained person against the manufacturer's own procedure for your vehicle. Nothing here replaces that procedure.

What makes one worth reading:

  • The car — make, model, year and engine. The same fault behaves differently on each.
  • What you measured, not only what you replaced.
  • What actually fixed it — or that nothing did, which is worth knowing too.
